Dive into an unforgettable journey through Oaxaca's cultural treasures. We'll kick things off by exploring Monte Albán, the ancient Zapotec capital and a World Heritage Site, where you can admire temples, tombs, and an impressive view of the valley. We'll head to the Tule Tree, an ancient ahuehuete considered one of the largest in the world. Later, we'll stop to enjoy Oaxacan cuisine at a typical restaurant, with options like mole, tlayudas, or artisanal mezcal. In the afternoon, we'll check out the Mitla Archaeological Zone, famous for its stone-carved Greek fretwork and its deep connection to life and death in Zapotec culture.
